Former ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Star Rachel Leviss Looks Nearly Unrecognizable on Vacation With Boyfriend

Rachel Leviss – whose affair with Tom Sandoval dominated Vanderpump Rules headlines for weeks in 2023 — was spotted looking nearly unrecognizable during a recent vacation with her boyfriend, Jason Boucher.

In the photos shared by Boucher via Instagram on November 19, Leviss, 31, wore her brown hair loose around her shoulders and sported what appeared to be a makeup-free face. The former reality TV star wore a variety of beachy looks ranging from a strapless yellow maxi dress to a brown and white patterned sundress.

Leviss shot to fame during her time on Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules. When she was introduced to fans in season 5, she was dating James Kennedy and known as Raquel. The two had a volatile relationship, and they ultimately went their separate ways in December 2021, just seven months after he had proposed to her.

Leviss’ life took a hard left turn the following year when her secret months-long affair with VPR costar Sandoval, 43, exploded into public view. The relationship — which unfolded while Sandoval was still living with longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix — became one of the biggest reality scandals of 2023, dubbed Scandoval.

Leviss and Sandoval’s connection had allegedly began in mid 2022 and continued in secret for months before Madix, 40, discovered explicit messages between them on Sandoval’s phone. The revelation ended the Love Island USA host and Sandoval’s nine-year relationship, and triggered a massive fallout that ultimately pushed Leviss to step away from the show — and the spotlight — entirely.

Since then, the former pageant queen has pivoted to a career in the wellness space and she now works as a certified sound bowl practitioner.
